MEMORIAL DAY

The Nation will celebrate Me-
mMorial Day in a few days. Busi-
ness will practically suspend
while countless thousands will
gather around the tombs of the
soldier dead and amid eulogy,
praise and song recount the
great achievements of Amercia's
illustrious heroes.

Tt is fitting that we should
show our veneration and affec-
tionate regard for those who ac-
tuated by patriotism, laid their
lives ungrudgingly upon the al-
tar of their country that the
perpetuity of its institutions of
liberty might be obtained.
When the founders of this
government wrote the Declara-
tion of Independence the under-
lying principle and spirit of that
immortal document in order to
. beefficacious and effective in its
* _ inaccessibility to the hordes and
* votaries and enemies of liberty
and free government, it first of
all must needs be in full har-
mony and sympathy with the
Divine Will, recognizing and ac-
cepting the doctrine unc

romisingly, declaring thanking you for your patron-
Father od Oye and ‘the bro-

of race, color, creed or previous
conditions of servitude.
Otherwise such a document
or proclamation is but a farce
and a mockery and the super-
structure of government rests
upon a foundation of sand, its
annihilation but a question of
time and all the struggles and
achievements of her armies shall
have been in vain.

Ever since the fall of Adam
upon the universal stage of ac-
tion, the gladiators right and
wrong have more or less been
gripped in bloody combat, wrest-
ling for supreme mastery of au-
thority until at times in Amer-
ica’s history she seemed forsak-
en of Almighty, God, the usur-
pation of her seat of government
by tyranny and the exterpation
of all engaged in the advocacy
and promulgation of the doctrine
of liberty, righteousness and the
entire emancipation of all man-
kind under the canopy of the

God grant that not only this
Nation, but all nations of the

important thing in the world is
humanity and the greatest and
illustrious achievements
are those wrought for the sal-
vation, upbuilding and redemp-

depths of misery, degradation,
and despair, that unprejudiced

SOME COLORED RESTAU-
RANTS

How some colored restaurants
stay in business is a mystery
indeed, and how some people
can have the stomach to eat in
them is another mystery. (Not
saying some white restaurants
are not equally as bad.) In
the first place they are shabby,
dirty, unsanitary, and the pro-
prietors and help also greasy,
shabby and unkempt. And to
top it all off, they are impolite,
endeavoring to impress you
with the idea that the public
should obsequiously cater to
them and deem it a great favor
to walk in, sit down to the ta-
ble, pay your good money and
receive something to eat (such
as it is, all sorts, hash, rehash,
suckatash, and such a tash).

The knives, forks and spoons
are some more silver; did I say
silver? I mean pewter—oh,
doggone it, why didn’t I say
lead? And then they have the
brass and the nerve to bring
you a meal, not a meal, just a
grab-all of a little of this and a
little of that, vegetables all
tasting the same; bread cut
‘thin as a knife; butter the
thickness and size of a thin
dime; coffee about as delicious
as dish water, asking 45 or 50
cents.

Why don’t the help comb
their hair, wear clean aprons
and neat calico dresses? Why
don’t the management keep
clean linen on the tables, serve
good, clean, well-seasoned,
wholesome food in better table
service? Why don’t they show
more courtesy and politeness
to patrons?

Even in some of what are
called the best colored restau-
rants some bad conditions pre-
vail, such as lack of politeness
to patrons, catering to them in
the proper Way, trying to get

rich too quick, charging big:

prices and not giving you your
money's worth and rarely

et. he trouble is;\so many
torritedg staurants” and
their attendants think colored
folks are all alike.

They fool around in the
kitchen, laughing, talking, kill-
ing time during meal hours,
making you wait overtime, nev-
er considering that there are
colored men of business affairs
and that time is also an im-
portant affair with them. In
fact, as a rule, they treat the
shiftless, careless, no-accounts
with more courtesy, prompt-
ness and consideration than
they do the more respecting,
gentlemanly element of the
race,

The colored man, if hé ex-
pects to succeed in business,
must cater to the public like,
for instance, the Jew, Greek or
any other nationalities of the
white race. Give the customer
® good square meal, got up
clean, served by cleanly-garbed
attendants, and charge him a
fair, honest price, and then he
will feel more kindly disposed
to offer tips. But don’t hold
him up, so to speak, and expect
him to do so. And as to some
colored hotels—oh, Lord, have
mercy! Nuff sed!

SS eee SE

Mr. Edward Beck, proprietor
of the confectionery and novelty
store, 892 Oak Street, desires to
thank the Colored people for
their excellent support. He
treats white and Colored alike,

See the write-up of the Rast
Mound Garage now owned by
Mr. Trowbridge, 560 Bast
Mound.

O. H. Grooms, owner of Maple
Dell Ice Cream, is the premier
ice cream manufacturer in Co-
lumbus and he certainly must be
the best, for he is getting the
bulk of the ice cream trade
among the Colored people. He
furnishes cream for practically
all of the Colored churches of
this city. He is reliable and
trustworthy.

beep Sunday evening, April
10th;

WAYMAN A, M. E. CHURCH
You members all are gathering

ere,
This church to dedicate,
To God, the Father of all men
Born to this earth's estate,
With solemn praise, and grate-
ful hearts
His blessings you should pro-
claim,
The sacred fires within you

urn
At mention of His name.

What mighty victories hath
God wrought,
Through men who did His
will!
Who questioned not, who
doubted not,
His word He would fulfill.
Regardless of the rugged peaks
Up which they had to climb,
To consummate the great de-
sign
God puts in mortal mind.
As I survey this temple here,
Reared by the hand of man,
A thing of beauty, strength
and grace,
Worthy a master’s hand.
These Christian warriors gath-
ered here,
Veterans who have fought
well,
The witchery of its grandeur
throws
O'er me its mystic spell.

(
This is the most auspicious

event
In all your struggling career;
Your victories and achieve-
ments
Are illustrious and appear
More dazzling and resplendent
Than the jewels in Sheba’s

crown,
Throughout the countless ages
To God’s glory shall re-
dound, '
Through | stormy. ceas.. you've
nobly fought
To carry out these plans;
.Endured the ‘scoffs, the mocks
and jeers
While striving with willing
hands.
But to the fearless and the

rave,
These things but drive them
on
To fight tho it leads to the

gates of death,
Till every foe is gone.

As you look back in retrospect,
now that the battle’s won,
Flushed with the victory you've

achieved,
Reflect what God has done.
Man with all his might and
power,
What is he, after all,
Without that King who holds

the fate
Of all things, great and
small?
He made the sea, He made the
earth,

The heavens gleamed above,
He made the countless glitter-
ing spheres
That chant His power and
love,
The thunder’s roar, the light-
ning’s crash,
The winds that leap and

sigh,
Tell of God’s wisdom, omnipo-
tent might,
The conqueror of earth and
sky.

(
Fortunate, indeed, you mem-
bers are,
To honor such a God.
By rearing this temple majes-
tic here,
Upon this sacred sod.
Heaven gets takes note of
a
These ceremonies today;
Rejoices in the homage
And tributes you to Him pay.
Is there a prophet or a seer
Within these walls today,
Who can forsee what mean
your deeds
To generations yet to be?
Know ye not they shall inspire
Generations yet unborn,
Touched by the power of Ja-
cob’s God
Shall these
adorn?

THE COLUMBUS RECORDER

Greer: Sphinx Unlike «
a (Ideas /s}. Egyptian

The « reek aphing was not a mone-
ment, ue the sutviving sphinxes of
Kgypt. She was # creature of Greek
mythology, having the body of a lon,
the wings of a by-d, the tall of a ser-
pent and the heid of a woman. She
presented the Thebans with a riddle,
according to the legend, and slew all
those who were unable to guess It.
Edipus solved it at length, and in cha-
grin she cast herself over a cliff and
died,

Somewhat similar composite figures
are familiar in Keyptiun ar~—bouies
of Hons with heads \of other animals
or of men. The Greeks called these
representations sphinxes, aud we have
adopted thelr term, To the Egyp-
tans, however, the Qgures were artis-
Ue conceptions of an imaginary anl-
mal believed to be a favorite iIncarna-
tion of Re, the sun god, The pharaohs
were held to be the descendants of
Re, and his represeytatives on earth,
For that reason the face of a sphinx
was modeled after thut of the reigning
monarch, or sometinies from that of
the queen,

Of the numerous tan sphinxes
the most celebrated aid remarkable,
of course, Is the Great|Sphinx of Gi-
zeh, lying among the pyramids as a
guardian of the necropolis. . From in-
scriptions found on this famous mon-
ument when the dust of ages was
cleared away from the front of it to
1816, the figure is taken to represent
Harmachis, a special form of the on

god,

Navigational Authority

One of the extremely old orgapiza-
tions in England is the Corporation of
Trinity house, the history of which,
some authorities say, goes back to the
days’ of Alfred the Great. Trinity
house has a long arm, reaching all
around the coasts of Great Britain,
embracing the Channel islands and
extending to Gibraltar. Within this
extensive area it is the supreme n.vi-
gational authority. Lt runs the light-
houses, buoys the channels, lays down
the navigation marks and licenses
most of the pilots. There are approx-
imately 1,000 persons In Its employ
and all of them are engaged In some
way or another in lessening the risks
incidental to seafaring. Every Amer-
fean traveler who yisits Europe Is de-
pendent upon Trinity house for reach-
ing harbor safely on the other side—

Old Welsh Association

The Gorsedd is ap assembly, an es
sential part of the modern Histeddfod,
the national bardic congress of Wales,
whose objects are to encourage bard-
ism, the Welsh language and customs,
and to foster and cultivate a patriotic
spirit, It ls divided into three orders,
the bards, the Druid bards and the
Ovate bards. The first are the poets;
the second, religious teachers, and the
third, persons interested in literature,
selence and art. The Druid is the
highest grade. Women and men are
eligible for all degrees. The first Gor-
sedd was held in America in connec-
thon with the World's falr elsteddfod
at Ohicago in 1893.

Odd Ocean Denizen
One of the strangest of Ilving crea-

It was found at a depth of 1.8 miles

near the freezing point and under a

Y Insect’s Home Is Sea

Ai nsect belonging to the fly family
that pends its whole life In salt sea
water is the strange find reported to
the Royal society by F. W. Edwards
and Dr. P, A. Buxton of the British
museum. Doctor Buxton, who recent-
ly returned from a voyage to Samoa,
found the Insect nssoclated with re-
lated forms whose larval or infant
stages ate spent in the water, but
whose adult life Is llved In the normal
aerial surroundings of most Insects.
This Is sald to be the first recorded
case of an insect going through tt

Even Busy Bee Likes
= His Periods of Rest

sees like to doxe and sleep during
the day time, and they do it onmo-
lested, according to Prof. Karl von
Frisch, eminent entomological worker
of Germany, Not only does Doctor
von Frisch find that honey bees enjoy
daily slestas, but love of ease varies
greatly in individual bees Contin-
ulng his earller researches in bee psy-
chology, Doctor von Frise’ devised
a method of marking individual bees
with indelible colors. Curefully placed
observers were able to follow the
movements of these marked bees even
in fight, Through glass-inclosed hives
they saw murked bees return to their
particular spot on the comb, indulg-
Ing, after moderate activity, in pe
riods of Inactivity ranging from min-
utes to hours, although their total
span of fe is approximately five
weeks. It was not until the marking
device was hit upon that Herr von
Frisch fathomed some of the age-old
mysteries of bee civilization, To at-
tempt to learn these by watching at
random 40,000 bees in the hive was a
hopeless task, Doctor von Friseb as-
serted, adding: “It was always the
we weren't loking at that
moved.” *

Treland’s Middle Age
6 Place of Pilgrimage

Ireland has a place of pilgrimage
which bas held its position for 14 cen-
turtes. It is on an island in Lough
Derg, and is said to be the only pil-
grimage of modern times conducted
like those of the Middle ages. It is
freely noticed In medieval literature.
and still today is very much allye. It
is visited, yearly, beginning in the
month of June, by all sorts of people,
and despite Its ‘rigors, It is so popu-
lar that a new chureb has been bullt
and the rallway companies run ex-
cursions to it, The pilgrims arrive
fasting and make their rounds of the
stations in thelr bare feet. Three of
the stations must be made each day
of the three days of the pilgrimage.
The first meal is of black tea and
dry bread, and this has to last for
24 hours. A whole night is spent in
prayer in the church. This fs a try-
Ing experience, yet year after year
hundreds return, and they include
notable figures in public life. None
but pilgrims are allowed on the ts-
land, and once there, all the strict
regulations must be observed by all.

Discovery Saved Millions

Theobald Smith, sometimes called
the captain of American microbe hunt-
ers, solved the mystery of what gives
Texas fever to morthern, cows anit
how southern cows carry this dase
north. When he found that the dis-
ease was given to animals by a tick,
be not only saved the cattle industry
millions of dollars, he showed men
an entirely new and fantastic way a
disease may be carried—by an insect,
and only by that Insect, says Paul
de Kruif in his book, “Microbe Hunt-
ers.” The developments of this scien-
tifie discovery have saved and will
save countless lives. For example,
Dayid Bruce, British army doctor, dis-
covered that the tsetse fly was re-
sponsible for the terrible African
sleeping .sickness. It was learned
also that a mosquito, and only one
kind of mosquito, was the carrler of
malaria fever.

Decisive Battles

War college historiahs say that of
the thousands of battles and engage-
ments fought in the United States in
five wars, only six were really deci-
sive. Two were in the Revolutionary
war, the surrender of the British Bur-
goyne at Saratoga, bringing about the
definite intervention of France in fu
vor of the American colonies, and’ the
surrender of the British army by
Cornwallis at Yorktown, ending the
war with England.

The historians skip the War of 1812,
the Mexican war and the Indian wars
says Capper's Weekly, and find the
next four battles resulting In far
reaching effect politically, were those
of Gettysburg, Vicksburg, Chicka
mauga and Chattanooga. The Vicks
burg campaign, they say, was the most
brilliant operation of the Union Army
of the Tennessee,

The New Pupil

Whittier, Calif, was settied by
Quakers, often called Friends, and
there are a good many of that de-
nomination left. Other churches are
not lacking, however, and one of these
claims the following Incident:

Sunday school had been in prog
ress half an hour when a# wiry smull
boy came in dragging behind bim a
slightly larger girl, red-faced and ex
postulating.

“Why, Gordon,” asked his teacher,
hurrying toward him, “doesn’t the
little girl want to come?”

“No, ma’am, she'd rather go to her
own Sunday school; but you said each
one of us was to bring a friend to
day and this was the only one [ could
get.”"—Everybody's Magazine.

3 Toothless Era Seen

actentists state that certain change.
in the structure of man are going on
at the present moment, and one of the
most marked of these is that we're
losing our teeth. They are certainly
decreasing in number, The third mo-
lar Is doomed, and other teeth may
follow until the normal! state of man
ts toothlessness, When that happens
the square chin will no longer be a
sign of strength of character, for
there will be none. As the teeth re-
cede or disappear the chin will recede

4Cathedral’s Fire Brigaae,

St, Paul's cathedral ip London has
its own private fire brigade and wa-
ter service. The water service was
installed shortly before the World
war. Though the cathedral does not
appear to the casual observer as be-
ing a building that would burn easily,
being mostly of stone, there are hid-
den away in the thickness of its walls
and elsewhere ip {ts interior several
hundred, passages, corridors, rooms,
staircases and cupboards composed
largely of The great outer
ome, which ts to be seen from the
street, also is made of wood, encased
with lead. Another reason for the
fire brigade {s the fact that most of
the wood In the structure ls many
years old and unusually dry, making
ft excellent tinder in event a fire
should start in the building.~-Ler “on

Proved His Contention

There is none so deaf as he wh
will not hear, and there is none so
feeble as he who hates manual work.
The man detested It. He worked hard
and brilliantly with his head, and con-
sequently only worked when he had to
with his hands, At the earnest solici-
tation of some moving power he finally
consented to mow the lawn. It was a
long, dreary process to him, and he
loved it less every minute he was on
the job. When he finished he looked
at his hands partly in sorrow, partly
in triumph, and then he went to his
wife and stretched out those hands
accusingly. “See,” he sald; “see those
blisters? Didn't I tell you that I
wasn't strong enough to do it?’—
Springfield Union.

Roadside wit ts, ufter all, the test
of friendship, One should not get In
too deep with people until one has
had a blowout with them.

silent for a hundred miles, but he al-
ways has plenty to say about the right
way to jack-up BomelLody else's ma-

The passengers can trample forty
icres while the host fs hunting for a
ost wrench, or tinkering with a de-
mountable rim, but they never run

the spot where the bedraggled owner
its down at the picnic supper.—Kan-

Used to Make Medicines

The aborigines of tropical America
velleved the fern to possess special
marative properties and when made
nto a sirup it was used for pulmo-
iary and other Internal flls. An oll
nade from the male fern of a cer.
ain species has long been and Is to
iny highly valued by physicians as
an excellent vermifuge. In addition
o its medicinal virtues, the roets of
‘his fern are highly prized for making
veer and other beverages pleasing to
the taste. At the present time the
french believe fervently in the medi-
tinal qualities of a sirup made from
the Venus's-halr fern.

No better battery service in
the city than Wolford’s, 533

& vance Has Absorbed
Blood of Many Races

vrance |s, called a Latin country,
but little save the language and some
customs are really left over from Ro-
man times. Racially, there is no Eu-
ropean people more mixed, TWwo-
thirds of the dwellers in ancient Gaul
were Celts, the rest were Teutonic
Franks.

This Celto-Teutonic admixture in
the last 2,000 years has absorbed Ro-
mans from all parts of that hetero-
geneous empire; pure Celts, in Brit-
tany; Scandinavian Normans, in the
Seine valley; Teutonic Flemings and
Wualloons, in the north; Teutons, In
Lorraine and Alsace; Italians, in Nice
and Savoy; Greeks and Arabs, on the
Mediterranean coast; Spaniards and
Basques, in the Pyrenees; English
and Seotech, in the southwest, which
was held by English kings for more
than a century. ie

After the Napoleonic wars came
many Poles. Before 1914 Swiss, Ger-
man and Belgian immigrants were be-
ing quickly assimilated. Such facts
augur well for the present undigested
contingents of Italians, Russians,
Czechs and Poles. There’ has been
talk, nevertheless, of establishing a
quota system similar to that in force
im the United States,

Travesty on Coffee
% Served by Javanese

Java coffee is renowned the world |

over—in the bean. In the cup, as
served in the Dytoh tropical posses-

sions, {t is a frightful travesty on cof- |

fee, writes Samuel G, Blythe in the
Saturday Evening Post.

They roast the bean until {it Is al-
most burned, and grind it, Then they |'
let water drip through it or employ
some other occult process, and pro-
duce a black, thick, acrid mixture
they call coffee essence. This Is
served cold In a little pitcher, with a
larger pitcher of hot water, The plot

is to pour some of the essence into
your cup, fill the cup with the hot
water and revel in the murky com-
bination.

It doesn't taste like coffee. It
tastes like some sort of chemical so-
lution used for cleaning rugs. That
is a detail. There isn’t a good cupful
of coffee, or a cupful of good coffee,
to be had outside of the United States
anywhere In this world, so why im-
peach the Dutchman's ides ¢* ‘he
brew? ® =
